Britain's Greatest Bridges - Season 1 - Eps 5: The Tyne Bridge
Engineer Rob Bell tells the story of the design and construction of six of Britain's most iconic bridges. Built partly as a lifeline to keep shipbuilders employed and their skills alive during the dark days of the 1920s recession, the Tyne Bridge is not just an icon to Geordies - many believe that it was the inspiration for the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
